Assertion failure 'req_type.is_dblwr_recover() || err == DB_SUCCESS' for page_compressed tables

Details

    Description

      The function os_file_punch_hole() would return DB_IO_NO_PUNCH_HOLE if the underlying file system does not support the operation. This error code is silently transformed to DB_SUCCESS in IORequest::punch_hole().

      In MDEV-15528, a call to os_file_punch_hole() was added to fil_io() but the return value DB_IO_NO_PUNCH_HOLE is not being tolerated.

      If the data directory resides in a file system that does not support the hole-punching, then the following test would crash:

      ./mtr innodb.innodb-page_compression_zip
      

      10.5 4ec032b492de5c392f66c9c1764cbf72442ed3a9

      CURRENT_TEST: innodb.innodb-page_compression_zip
      mysqltest: At line 93: query 'update innodb_page_compressed1 set c1 = c1 + 1' failed: 2013: Lost connection to MySQL server during query
      2020-07-22 10:51:37 0x7f71b9694700  InnoDB: Assertion failure in file /mariadb/10.5m/storage/innobase/fil/fil0fil.cc line 3919
      InnoDB: Failing assertion: req_type.is_dblwr_recover() || err == DB_SUCCESS
      

      An example of such a file system is encfs 1.9.5 set up on top of ext4 on Debian GNU/Linux.

      Note: A file system that does not support hole-punching will make the use of page_compressed tables pointless. Maybe we should issue some error on CREATE TABLE already? But that is a separate bug.
